Welcome to Urban Abroad a blog about travel and urban living.

This online travel space is curated by Daniel James, a digital designer who loves to travel.

Whether I find myself in Europe or Latin America, as my time becomes more and more precious, I strive to squeeze in extra hours for both work and play.

Slow travel, cultural escapades, long weekend trips, and sustainable adventures are what I love more than anything in this world.

As I plan my travels, I work around the clock and want to teach my readers how to do the same, but in a more responsible way.

In turn, this motivates me to share my knowledge and experiences from cities around the world that I’ve visited or lived in for an extended period of time.

I share the things I have learned in relation to:

Responsible travel
Sustainable and smart cities
Green initiatives
Social projects
Urban food production
Migration and refugees
Climate change and much more

Although a major part of what I write is about travel, my site is designed to inspire, inform, advise, and share useful information about good practices and future challenges in different kinds of cities around the globe.

I believe travel can expand your knowledge and give you tools to make better decisions and think outside the box when it comes to a healthy work/life balance.

This site will also show you how to live a more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle as you travel; that way, you can design your own style or simply just benefit from the tips in my travel blogs.
